"And the man rose up to depart; but his father-in-law urged him, and he lodged there again." — Judges 19:7 (ASV)
And when the man rose up to depart Rose up from table, having ate and drank sufficiently, in order to depart the house, and proceed on his journey:
his father in law urged him ; with much entreaty, and earnest solicitations, that he would stay all night with him:
therefore he lodged there again ; another night, being prevailed upon through his father's importunity.
